Jan. 2025

This game has its flaws but overall I enjoyed it. I thought the world and story was interesting, and I love the art style. The combat feels rough but is easy. The dialog could use some work, they mainly just talk too much, even during fighting, I would end up interrupting people but not on purpose. The first chapter or two were the weakest I think, it picks up more after that. But overall I enjoyed my time with this game, it was mostly chill and I could just watch a story unfold, make some choices along the way. If you like those kinds of games and this world seems interesting to you then you might like it. But dont buy it for the combat, this game isn't about that.

Nov. 2024

It's a politically charged action adventure game with a focus on quick time events and dialogue choices in the vein of David Cage games like Detroit become Human(Quantic Dream is involved in the publishing of this game). Dustborn also reminds me of Beyond good And Evil through its characters and melee focused combat(basically BGE with less player movement freedom and more branching narrative. Judging it as a game I appreciate that there are no microtransactions or DRM. The art style is absolutely stunning. I also encountered very few bugs and glitches. Overall I think the game is harmless fun if you are not put off by progressive politics. I never had so many moments where I burst out laughing while playing a video game. The main character is basically an antihero who has psychological manipulation abilities and uses them against her enemies, neutral characters and occasionally her own crew who also have different abilities that they use during conversations, combat and exploration. On a roadtrip across the United States she meets and recruits new crew members as the story goes on who also have different powers that are collectively called "Vox" in the world of the game. I genuinely see an X-men game being made in this same way and being well received. With much more subtle political overtones of course(New Mutants perhaps). If not that then maybe Ubisoft will hire this studio to finish their Beyond Good and Evil sequel for them. The price is also not that bad though I recommend to get it on a sale if you like the interactive story games of Quantic Dream and David Cage.

The game is fine, I like the characters for the most part, just some situations, when the game forces me to do a thing I really don't want to... Forcing me to use Pax's power to bully people. . The story is fine, nothing groundbreaking and I suck at the rythm game so much and would love to have an option to skip those, same as it let's me skip combat, if I don't want it. Personally I don't mind the combat, yea it's rather barebones, but this is not a FIghting Game, I am not expecting an Soulslike Combat System or anything, for what it is, it is perfectly fine. Worst part about this game, by far, is the Anti-Woke mob it attracts to review bomb the game; and that is clearly not the games fault, now is it.

Nov. 2024

Too much unpolished and cringy stuff, and the ending is too unfinished I think. And why the hell would they do that to Theo . But overall I like the crew, and the setting. Bring Theo back!

Aug. 2024

the game is aesthetically repulsive and an insult to the entire project of world-civilization, playing it for only three hours I developed a terrible headache within the first; however; the US Govt provided the developers with a grant of 250k to combat misinformation, and I support the Free West
